Don’t Miss The Fried Chicken Festival In New Orleans That’s Finger Licking Good

New Orleans will throw a festival for just about anything. With the cooler weather (slowly) approaching, we can expect festival season to kick in, where there’s a festival practically every weekend until Mardi Gras. In just a few short weeks one of the best smelling festivals takes over Woldenberg Park, and you’re not going to want to miss it. The National Fried Chicken Festival is finger-licking good, and fun for the whole family. Mark your calendars!

The National Fried Chicken Festival descends on Woldenberg Park for 3 days of finger licking good fun.

Since its humble beginnings in 2016, the festival has grown from a one-day event in Lafayette Square to a three-day festival in Woldenberg Park jam-packed with activities, live music, and all the fried chicken you could eat.

The festival is free to enter, but you can upgrade your experience by purchasing a VIP experience, which gives you access to a 2,000-square-foot lounge with restroom access, soft drinks, water, seating, and a great view of the stages.
